Camera Obscura

-


These were my results for my own created camera obscura, originally being used by Abelardo Morell. I used my roommates empty room and just used black trash bags to block out the light. 
Once I cut the hole in the wall I was surprised that although more subtle than I expected the images were projected on the walls. It was defiantly easier to see the images through the camera on my phone. 



This is the view that was projected, outside my building, other buildings, cars, parking lot. 
 I really liked the end result I wish I could of kept it up to look at at other times of the day but I had to take it down. I would defiantly try it again though at other locations, it was so much simpler than I thought and really surprised me how technology works like that .

This is my performance art piece. The message I wanted to send with this is that creativity is in everyone even if they don't think so and we should embrace it more. Many people during their normal week day wouldn't ever think about painting. Painting for me is very therapeutic and relaxing, it lets me get my emotions out on to something physical. I actually had a lot of fun during this experience, so many different people contributed for the end result it was pretty amazing. I even had people asking me if I would be back next week, saying we need more people doing things like this.

Opt Illusion Hands

This is my Xerox project, it's called "Life". I choose to fashion my hands in this type of optical illusion in a spiral because it symbolizes my life. How there are many feelings and emotions can be felt through my day and how they can change. This is represented through the position my hands are in. The open hand kinda of meaning like welcoming and happy, the peace sign as content, and the scrunched up one as struggle or challenge. I thought it looked really cool in the end with the use of different shades of black and white. The fingers in the middle I thought just looked cool I didn't have a specific meaning for them but as I'm looking at it now it kind of looks like a compass in the hand or something. I added the light in the second picture to give it a cool filter.
